Eddie Murphy on reviving Axel Foley, fatherhood, and what a return to the stage might look like

Actor and comedian Eddie Murphy always knew he was destined for fame. He was so confident in his future success that as a child, he would tell his mother how his name would one day be in lights. 

"I knew I was gonna be famous," he told "CBS Mornings" co-host Gayle King. "When I got famous, it was like, 'See, I told you'."

Calling Murphy famous might be an understatement. He is an icon with four decades of blockbuster films. His journey to stardom was cemented with his breakout role as Axel Foley in "Beverly Hills Cop," which held the No. 1 spot at the box office for 14 weeks in 1984. The film's global success helped establish him as a leading actor and marked a significant moment in Hollywood for Black actors.
